Many people in Ohio have encountered boxelder bugs. However, a lot of locals may not have realized what they were dealing with. These small, black pests have flat wings with unique red markings. In general, adult boxelder bugs will measure half an inch. When living outside, box elder bugs will feed on many trees, including box elder trees, cherry trees, maple trees, and ash trees.
Why You Have Box Elder Bugs
Box elder bugs are going to invade your home because they’re members of the overwintering category. These pests do not like being stuck outside in cold weather. They cannot tolerate the frigid temperatures, snow, and frost. As a result, they’ll try to enter your home through small cracks, holes, and gaps. They will leave when it gets hot but you’ll have to put up with them until the temperatures rise.
